A connection with server cannot be established message I keep getting. I can see my router fine but cant connect.

I have a mobile pro 790 from NEC. I have installed my wifi card and I can see my network but whenever I try to go to a website I keep getting a message that says a connection with the server can not be established. I think that i need to adjust my setting in internet option. Please help.

This problem is because there is some misconfigurations that you might have done on the ip address part or either you have added a static ip address which is not getting along with either the DHCP address.

So just check that and try. or else remove it then put it back then try.
